"1597. The Mirror of Alchemy is an alchemical classic written by Roger Bacon, (Doctor Mirabilis: Latin for Wonderful Teacher), English Franciscan philosopher and educational reformer was a major medieval proponent of experimental science and is thought of as one of the earliest advocates of the modern scientific method. He studied mathematics, astronomy, optics, alchemy, and languages. His Opus Majus contains treatments of mathematics and optics, alchemy and the manufacture of gunpowder, the positions and sizes of the celestial bodies, and anticipates later inventions such as microscopes, telescopes, spectacles, flying machines and steam ships".

13. Bleiler, Everett F. Johann Valentin Andreae, fantasist and utopist. Sci Fict Studs 35(1 (104)) Feb 2008, 3-30.

"A category of fantastic fiction that has not received much critical attention is the alchemical fiction that flourished during the Renaissance and early Baroque periods in Europe. A literature of wide variety, ranging from pretended historical accounts rendered with some verisimilitude to total fantasies, some of it is proto science-fiction of a sort, since it fantasized the generally accepted science of the day, physical alchemy. One of the most interesting of these alchemical fictions is the short novel Chymische Hochzeit Christiani Rosencreütz Anno 1459 [A Chemical Wedding by Christian Rosencreütz] (1616) by Johann Valentin Andreae (1586-1654). An outgrowth of the contemporary Rosicrucian hoax, it describes the ritual decapitation and dissolution of triple monarchs who are reconstituted and revived by a traditional alchemical process. The narrative, which embodies elements from various cultural configurations of the day, centers on the experiences of the aged hermit Christian Rosencreütz, who attends the magical court and is witness of and participant in the successful alchemical operation. While much of the novel remains puzzling, it is most interesting in working alchemical ideas into fictional form. Andreae is generally considered one of the most important German authors of the seventeenth century. A pioneer in bringing Italian literary techiques into German literature, he is also the author of the eutopia Christianopolis (1619).. [#ABEL2].

17. The Solidonius Manuscript; translated by Vincent Matley, with an introduction by Adam McLean. Glasgow: Adam McLean, 2008. 60p.

(Magnum Opus Hermetic sourceworks; 35). "The Solidonius series of eighteen watercolour emblems is an obscure alchemical work existing in at least sixteen manuscripts. It dates back to 1541, but the early version was rediscovered and reworked during the 18th century revival of interest in alchemical works in France. At the core of the emblem sequence is a strange meeting and merging of two figures. In other alchemical works, such as the Rosarium philosophorum, which is in fact contemporary with the early version of the Solidonius, this occurs through the figure of a hermaphrodite. Here we do have a meeting of male and female figures, but also a conjoining of two male figures. The idea being presented is the fusion of two polarised components. The work also incorporates the conventional sequence of alchemical colour changes. The text has been translated by Vincent Matley from the 18th century French version. It comments closely on the symbolism of the emblem sequence. The images have all been recreated in oil paintings by Adam McLean, which are facsimilies correcting the faded 18th century versions".

Includes references to the treatment of his alchemy by biographers. "Higgitt examines Isaac Newton’s changing legacy during the nineteenth century. She focuses on 1820-70, a period that saw the creation of the specialized and secularized role of the ‘scientist’. At the same time, researchers gained better access to Newton’s archives. These were used both by those who wished to undermine the traditional, idealised depiction of scientific genius and those who felt obliged to defend Newtonian hagiography. Higgitt shows how debates about Newton’s character stimulated historical scholarship and led to the development of a new expertise in the history of science". [*].

"These observations come to mind when watching the PBS science show, Nova, which did an excellent program on "Newton's Dark Secret." And what is this "dark secret" of the great genius, Issac Newton, the father of modern science? Simply this: the bulk of Issac Newton's writings and work were in theology and alchemy. From a modern standpoint, this is shocking, and the producers of the program were duly shocked. Newton is considered to be the man who single-handedly overturned all the superstitions of religion, alchemy, and astrology. So how could such a scientific genius (which he certainly was) become so mired in such "medieval" superstitions? The show went to great lengths to explain away the bulk of Newton's work".

28. Marshall, Peter. The magic circle of Rudolf II: alchemy and astrology in Renaissance Prague. Walker & Co, 2006. 276p. ISBN: 9780802715517.

"Rudolf II--Habsburg heir, Holy Roman Emperor, king of Hungary, Germany, and the Romans--is one of history's great characters, and yet he remains largely an unknown figure. His reign (1576-1612) roughly mirrored that of Queen Elizabeth I of England, and while her famous court is widely recognized as a sixteenth century Who's Who, Rudolf 's collection of mathematicians, alchemists, artists, philosophers and astronomers--among them the greatest and most subversive minds of the time--was no less prestigious and perhaps even more influential.

Driven to understand the deepest secrets of nature and the riddle of existence, Rudolf invited to his court an endless stream of genius--Danish astronomer Tycho Brahe, German mathematician Johannes Kepler, English magus John Dee, Francis Bacon, and mannerist painter Giuseppe Archimboldo among many others. Prague became the artistic and scientific center of the known world--an island of intellectual tolerance between Catholicism, Protestantism, and Islam.

Combining the wonders and architectural beauty of sixteenth century Prague with the larger than-life characters of Rudolf 's court, Peter Marshall provides an exciting new perspective on the pivotal moment of transition between medieval and modern, when the foundation was laid for the Scientific Revolution and the Enlightenment.

30. Glucklich, Ariel. The footsteps of Vishnu: a historical introduction to Hinduism. Oxford Scholarship Online Monographs, 2007. 243p. ISBN: 978-0-19-531405-2.

"The Strides of Vishnu explores a wide range of topics in Hindu culture and history. Hinduism has often set out to mediate between the practical needs of its many communities and a transcendent realm. Illuminating this connection, The Strides of Vishnu focuses not only on religious ideas but also on the various arts and sciences, as well as crafts, politics, technology, and medicine. The book emphasizes core themes that run through the major historical periods of Northern India, beginning with the Vedas and leading up to India's independence. Sophisticated sciences such as geometry, grammar, politics, law, architecture, and biology are discussed within a broad cultural framework. Special attention is devoted to historical, economic, and political developments, including urbanism and empire-building. The Strides of Vishnu situates religious and philosophical ideas within such broad contexts so religion sheds its abstract and detached reputation. The message of classical and medieval religious masterpiecesincluding the Upanishads, Bhagavad Gita, plays of Kalidasa, and many otherscomes to life within a broad world-making agenda. But while the literary masterpieces reflected the work of the cultural elites, The Strides of Vishnu also devotes considerable attention to the work that did not make it into the great texts: women's rituals, magic, alchemy, medicine, and a variety of impressive crafts. The book discusses the stunning mythology of medieval India and provides the methods for interpreting it, along with the vast cosmologies and cosmographies of the Puranas. The Strides of Vishnu is an introductory book on Hindu culture, but while it highlights central religious themes, it explores these within broader historical and cultural contexts. It gives its readers a clear and highly textured overview of a vast and productive civilization". [*].

"On one of the walls of the Birla temple in New Delhi is engraved an unusual inscription. Unusual, because it contains an amazing first-person account of an alchemical experiment purportedly conducted in the early 1940s in Delhi, which was witnessed by a few prominent people of that time. It was an experiment in which mercury was successfully transformed into gold - or so the inscription claims. Here's a translation of how the inscription, in Hindi, describes the event". [*].

"Deep in the mysterious night where all is but distorted dreaming, far beyond the logical grasp of man, yet buried deep in our hearts, there lives an ancient myth instructing us in the mystical art of alchemy and magic. Hermetica is an epic journey of poetic and verse drama that strives to find links between differing aspects of Egyptian mythology. As folklore was once such an embedded tradition, there was no need to record anything on papyri, even after the advent of hieroglyphic and cuneiform writing systems. As a result, an entire body of oral literature has been lost. What remains is but a small part of a potentially massive collection of unrecorded myth. Using the ancient tools of alchemy and magic, this volume seeks to sculpt the events leading to the death, dismemberment, and resurrection of Osiris. Also included is the sequel to the popular Middle Kingdom tale, "The Story of the Shipwrecked Sailor," and a dramatic interpretation of the Ptolemaic Lamentations of Isis and Nephthys. The accompanying poetry is a tribute to love, a pure byproduct of the alchemical process.Delve into the realms of unexplored myth, legend, and love as viewed through the hermetical musings of modern-day alchemist and poet, Paul Kiritsis".

Renaissance Hermeticism (including alchemy) as one of the three broad currents of thought dominating the scene in Europe "The "mind-body problem," as it's usually called, is among the most persistent themes of debate in the intellectual history of the modern West. Like most of the really difficult issues of philosophy, the problem itself is simple enough to state. In Western cultures, most people experience themselves as a composite of two elements: a material body, on the one hand, and an apparently nonmaterial mind, self, personality or soul - terms and conceptualizations vary - on the other. The problem is how to account for the relations and interactions between these two very different things". [#ABEL2].

"The Galactic Alignement is a rare astronomical event that brings the solstice sun into alignment with the centre of the Milky Way galaxy every 12,960 years. Building on the discoveries put forthin his book Maya Cosmogenesis 2012, Jenkins demonstrates that the end-date of 2012 does not signal the end of time but rather the beginning of an ascension stage in the development of human consciousness. He recovers a striking common thread that connects the ancient cosmological insights of the Maya not only to Egyptian thought and Vedic philosophy but also to the diversity of human-kind's metaphysical traditions, ranging from Celtic sacred topography and Medieval alchemy to the Kabbalah and Islamic astrology. His work presents us with ground breaking synthesis of lost wisdom once common to ancient cosmologies that will help us understand the significance of the transformative cosmic milestone". [*].

He devoted many years to an in-depth study of alchemy and closely observed the range of the occult; he was interested in anthropology and in nuclear physics.

(Oxford historical monographs). "Johann Heinrich Alsted, professor of philosophy and theology at the Calvinist academy of Herborn, was a man of many facets. A deputy to the famous Synod of Dort and the greatest encyclopaedist of his age, he was also a pioneer of Calvinist millenarianism and a devoted student of astrology, alchemy, Lullism, and the works of Giordano Bruno. This intellectual biography opens up unexpected perspectives on the central European Reformed tradition as a whole and provides an invaluable introduction to many of the central ideas, individuals, and institutions in this neglected area of intellectual history".

(Archives internationales d'histoire des idées; 172). "This book provides a uniquely detailed case study of the origins of millenarianism within the vast opera of one of its earliest and most influential Calvinist exponents: the Herborn encyclopedist Johann Heinrich Alsted (1588-1638). The young Alsted, it emerges, looked forward not to the millennium of Apocalypse 20 but to a brief, final period of enhanced illumination described in a poorly understood central European tradition of astrological, alchemical, spiritualist, and generally `occult' prophetic speculation. It was the disasters following the Bohemian Revolt of 1618 which forced Alsted to recast these expectations as the more exclusively scriptural expectation of a literal millennium; and the material for this revision was found in a protracted dispute over the millennium between senior theologians in Herborn and Heidelberg and a little-known work on the conversion of the Jews by one of the figures most probably behind the composition of the Rosicrucian manifestos. Based on study of the full range of Alsted's works, his diverse sources, and widely dispersed manuscript material, the result is the first English book on 17th-century continental millenarianism and the first monograph in any language exclusively devoted to the origins of the doctrine within mainstream Protestantism".

"The Lord of Uraniborg is a scientific biography of the famed astronomer, alchemist, and litterateur of the sixteenth-century Danish Renaissance, Tycho Brahe. On his island-fief of Hven, in Denmark, Tycho created a world-famous astronomical observatory, chemical laboratory, and general research institute under the patronage of the King of Denmark. At Uraniborg he constructed astronomical instruments, cast horoscopes, concocted medicines, composed Latin verse, and almost completely renovated the science of astronomy. Over a period of twenty years, Tycho made the observations that enabled him to mount the first serious challenge to the Aristotlelian world view, devise new theories of the motion of the sun and the moon, and compile Europe's first independent star catalogue. When Tycho died, he left to Kepler the observations of Mars that drove Kepler to discover the laws of planetary motion. Victor Thoren's biography, written in a lively and engaging style, offers new perspectives on Tycho's life and new analyses of virtually every aspect of his scientific work. A range of readers interested in astronomy, the history of astronomy, and the history of science will find The Lord of Uraniborg fascinating reading". [*].

"Spanning from the innauguration of James I in 1603 to the execution of Charles I in 1649, the Stuart court saw the emergence of a full expression of Renaissance culture in Britain. In Art and Magic in the Court of the Stuarts, Vaughan Hart examines the influence of magic on Renaissance art and how in its role as an element of royal propaganda, art was used to represent the power of the monarch and reflect his apparent command over the hidden forces of nature.`Court artists sought to represent magic as an expression of the Stuart Kings' divine right, and later of their policy of Absolutism, through masques, sermons, heraldy, gardens, architecture and processions. As such, magic of the kind enshrined in Neoplatonic philosophy and the court art which expressed its cosmology, played their part in the complex causes of the Civil War and the destruction of the Stuart image which followed in its wake".

On the date and contents of a Portuguese medieval technical book on illumination: O livro de como se fazem as cores. Mediaev Hist J 11(1) 2008, 1-28.

"The book this article discusses is a late medieval Portuguese technical text on illumination written with Hebraic characters. It belongs to a miscellaneous manuscript at Parma's Biblioteca Palatina. Discovered in 1803, it was attributed to Abraham ben Judah Ibn Hayyim and dated to 1262. Soon some authors assigned it to the fifteenth century. The paper's water-marks, recently observed, confirmed the fifteenth century date. Yet, the possibility that this text could be a copy of an older original remains. However, the discussion of the historical context and the content also suggests that the original dates more probably from the fifteenth than the thirteenth century. In terms of structure and content this text should not be considered a treatise but a heterogeneous compilation which, besides the Hebraic marks, presents significantly alchemic, Castilian and Arabic influences".

Available as an eBook. Other volumes may have material of interest. "In the great tradition of Nicolas Flamel and Fulcanelli, the immortal Dr. Faustroll returns to introduce this collection of writings on alchemy, that "secret science" no less mystifying and marvelous than our own art and science, pataphysics. Opening this anthology is Part 1 of Alfred Jarry's delightful last novel, La Dragonne (1907), translated from the French as The She-Dragon, and annotated to highlight some of Jarry's many alchemical allusions. Jarry's comic genius brings to life the inhabitants of a little town in the mountains of Savoy, focusing on gaming activities at and around the local tavern, and an oddly militaristic expectant father. Seven additional writers present their research or reflections on subjects as diverse as Chaucer's Canon's Yeoman's Tale, the bizarre Voynich Manuscript, Gustave Kahn's Tale of Gold and Silence, turn-of-the-20th-century South African statesman Paul Kruger (whose portrait bust appears on the Krugerrand), and symbolic dismemberment; two of these contributors present their work in poetic form, one of them seemingly cursed by alchemy, however benevolently, the other positing seven "easy" steps to completion of the "Great Work." Perhaps you will find yourself entwined somewhere in between, like Mercury's caduceus. For all pataphysicians, alchemists, and symbolists: welcome to the other world.

Contributors include: Alfred Jarry, Brisbane di Milo, Aaron Parrett, Chris Fritton, Cynthea Masson, Ben Fisher, Robin Touchstone, Brian Parshall, and Dr. Faustroll". [*].
